The E-Maxx output shaft, if 67.6mm long, is actually just about the perfect length for the motor. However, it's got that big chunk of metal in the middle, which would take a while to turn down or cut off.

That big chunk comes off pretty quick if you put it in a cordless drill, then hold it against a Bench Grinder. I take my time and don't get it too hot. Just stopping occasionally to cool it with cold water. Get it down close, then use a file on it to rough cut some more, and final polishing is done with sandpaper.
You might be surprised how fast this little procedure is. I removed the center "chunks" from two of the Revo Output shafts, fully prepped in about 30 to 45 minutes or so.
